Ode to the Sky Above

Whenst I observe the Sky above
And linger afore it turns to blue
My heart is filled to brim with love
In seeing thus the day born new.
The deepening colours, scarlet and amber
Spread across a canvas bare
And all these tones here seen up high
Make mind reflect on dying embers.
Softly appears, natures art, so fair
Clear white Clouds invade the Sky.
If all things ended, I would not care.
I see this Sky, and do remember
The brilliance of Nature's sigh.

When Sky adapts and fades to gray,
Still evermore I feel this love.
Forever I could gladly stay
And see thus turn to shades undreamed of.
With Sun and Clouds' own gentle kiss
Drifting upon this canvas of blue,
Joined for eternity in their migration.
Thy heart doth overflow with naked bliss,
Thy soul, whilst pondering this view,
Is overwhelmed with celestial elation.
Heaven's gates may not be true,
But if nothing else, you doth know this
Beauty true is Nature's ethereal creation.
